LD39 — Running out of Power (5)

Exocharge Infinite by Karnage Studios 2017-08-17T12:04:38Z ♥ 1

Input gets stuck if you die. You probably forgot to reset some static variables :P Other than that, great job! You'll score pretty high in the graphics and audio categories.

wtf

Tiny Wiring by Domantas 2017-08-01T12:27:51Z ♥ 1

Puzzle games seem very popular this time around, and this one is by far the most original I've seen so far. The only complaint that I have is that moving is kind of annoying when there are a lot of doors around. I think WASD movement would have been better. Apart from that, great job!

My finger hurts 😂 BTW, the resolution settings are messed up(no 1080p setting)

Airship Engineer by ryte2byte 2017-07-31T21:36:47Z ♥ 1

You messed up the resolution settings. There's no 1920x1080

LD36 — Ancient Technology (8)

RIP.tech by v3nevergod 2016-08-29T22:03:00

I looked at your project and noticed that the hearths are literally 2D sprites attached to the camera. I don't know why you would ever want to do that, but they're supposed to be under "Canvas", just like all your UI elements. Speaking of UI, make sure you understand anchors https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/UIBasicLayout.html 99% of the time you want your anchors to be at the corners of their respective UI element, otherwise it won't scale with resolution.

As a side note, I listened to that "Spooky scary skeletons" song while playing and it made the game more comical than it was supposed to be lol.

Bobby Bow by AWOL 2016-08-29T21:40:00

This is pretty bare bones, even for a compo entry, but it gets the job done. Also, I don't know about you, but that title screen hurts my eyes!

SynthMatch by snake5 2016-08-29T16:16:00

An options menu would be nice, especially to change the resolution, since some of these patterns are really hard to see at the default resolution. Other than that, I really liked the concept. This is a very original game for sure.

No Pyramid's Sky by DiegoCTorguet 2016-08-29T16:02:00

10/10 - "Better than No Man's Sky" - IGN

On a more serious note, the graphics were really nice and the music was relaxing. You should have added a scoring system based on distance traveled and maybe you could have added some pickups that give you more points just to make it more interesting, but overall, a really nice entry!

Lighthouse - Illuminate to rescue! by tomdeal 2016-08-29T15:51:00

Great entry! I really like the light effect you came up with and the puzzles were pretty interesting. Adding a time limit is debatable, because you can set things up the way they were in like 10 seconds, but I guess the game needed a fail condition.

Temple Quest by Vaiaphraim 2016-08-29T15:28:00

The music is really cool. Other than that, not much to say, because the concept is really simple.

Escape The Pyramid ! by Vegevan 2016-08-29T15:20:00

I can't tell if the writing is intentionally bad, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Also, there is no options menu, not even for the resolution. I don't know much about Godot Engine, but one would think that there is a "Screen.SetResolution" somewhere in there.

Ancient Motivation Technology by TheMightySice 2016-08-29T14:55:00

You are missing some basic things like a level selection screen and a pause menu. Other than that, not much to say. Solid entry!

LD34 — Two Button Controls / Growing (11)

Ogre Smash by muffty 2015-12-20T20:17:00

Pros:
-interesting approach to a story driven game, reminds me of Telltale games
Cons:
-seems very minimalist for a jam entry
-there's a typo in the introduction
-some of the events have 3 lines and you get like 5 seconds to read them and make a decision

Overall, it seems like you just ran out of time and you had 72 hours. Maybe it's your first time participating, in which case you did pretty well. Good luck on the next LD! :D

Son by Henriq 2015-12-19T11:55:00

Good cannot be defined without evil... Nice entry, I hope you score well in the "Mood" category.
As a side note, you should have randomized the animation speed on the houses, so the eyes aren't synchronized. Something like
Animator anim = GetComponent<Animator>();
anim.speed = Random.Range(0.5f, 1f);

My Best (Magical) Friend! by spotco 2015-12-19T11:34:00

This is so legit

StarHarvester by teeth 2015-12-19T11:20:00

Use "Screen.showCursor = false" in the future. Also, some stars are bugged. Other than that, the game is too simple, even for a compo entry and the "Hold Alt to look" thing feels like it's there just so you can have a second button, because there is no reason not to look when you move the mouse. Good luck on the next LD, I'm sure you learned a lot from this one :)

Capitalist FM by SuperDisk 2015-12-19T11:10:00

It crashes after 10 seconds every time I open it up. Good use of the theme though!

Soulless Dungeon by ursagames 2015-12-19T00:05:00

Very solid game. It might be worth developing a full version in the future, but for a LD game, I think it will score very well. Good job!

Fight Till The End by DragonGino 2015-12-18T23:46:00

WTF

Pilot Cat by ramoncb 2015-12-18T23:42:00

Came for cats, stayed for graphics.

Winter Wilds by Bastienre4 2015-12-18T23:28:00

Programmer messed up. Outside of that, great job on the graphics, sounds and overall atmosphere!

Cave Adventure by Yvanor 2015-12-18T22:59:00

That control scheme though...

Determinist Ball by Trizek35 2015-12-18T22:40:00

That level design is so evil...

LD33 — You are the Monster (8)

The Monster of the Computer by -muffin- 2015-08-25T16:38:00

Intro is funny, game doesn't work...

BOoOo!! by K1llercake 2015-08-25T16:33:00

Quick tip: Playtest your game. A lot.

The Monster Who Was Not (Yet) A Kiwi by Yakka 2015-08-25T16:22:00

Those were the best 2 minutes of my life. Thank you!

Programmatic Capitalism by Simon 2015-08-24T12:25:00

I know it's not the most complex game ever, but a tutorial or at least a description would help...

You are a Zombie? by Joseaper 2015-08-24T12:09:00

Quick tip: If you're making a survival horror-ish game and you really want music, make it very subtle. Also, switching the assets around isn't enough to make the player feel like a zombie. The gameplay is in complete contradiction to the "story of the game" and it felt like I was the human trying to kill zombies. Oh well, good luck next time :D

Monster Twins by Jukepoks1 2015-08-24T11:48:00

Great mechanic, graphics and level design. Easily the best LD33 game I've played so far. Great job! Only complaint I have is that it doesn't stick to the theme.

Ally's Funhouse by SheepFromHeaven 2015-08-24T11:36:00

Very little content and the gameplay has no depth, but it respected the theme very well and the hand drawn graphics set it apart from what could have been a very dull game.

Little monster's way back to home by BuddaKaeks 2015-08-24T11:21:00

This game is...interesting. Jumping feels a bit weird and the platforms don't go up if you're standing on them. Also, the gameplay had nothing to to with the theme, which is a waste, because I think this was a really good theme that allowed for a wild variety of games, and you develop...a puzzle platformer?
